I'd probably drop the {Arbor Elf} since you don't have too many forests and between {Farseek} and {Avacyn's Pilgrim} you probably have enough ramp anyway.  Might free up some room for some better creatures, or even {Rancor}.  Personally, I like to run {Deathrite Shaman} in any deck that supports his colors, so there's that.  I would not run {Orzhov Charm}, even in the side since most of the time it's just not good.  I like that it's additional removal but you have to be careful since if someone buffs the creature you target you might end up taking a lot of damage.  {Ultimate Price} is probably better
10 forests seems like a lot especially seeing as how 8 of them tap for not only green...  Deathrite to me is not as good in this format as he should be but seeing as how if i did drop arbor elf i'd only have 3 open slots so maybe rancor is an option. orzhov was just an idea that popped into my head hence the "?" i know it's not too good but wasn't sure what other's thoughts on it were.

This seems more Aggro than midrange.

I mean, outside of thrag, what mid-late game presence do you bring?

{obzedat} {lingering souls} {angel of serenity} {griselbrand} some cards, also {unburial rites} is amazing in midrange simply because its hard to answer. And you don't have to revolve the whole deck around it, just make it a win-con on its own but have the deck able to perform well without it.

{disciple of bolas} is great too, you sac your angel or thrag and draw 5-6 and gain 5 life then obzedat for ping and more life gain.

Really good.

well i call it midrange because it is not aggro like rakdos or other stereotypical aggro decks. in fact when i played rakdos the game seemed to grind out past turn 5 into me playing thrag and resto before actually killing the deck.

I just feel its really Aggro based with dreg mangler and Geist and all the mana dorks

I guess you're right I've just never thought of it that way because it normally grinds out games
